Canon’s Dual “DIGIC 4” provides the EOS 7D with the power to deliver
outstanding colour reproduction from its high resolution CMOS sensor. DIGIC 4
also delivers 14 bit processing, excellent noise reduction, long battery life,
Face Detection AF and Full HD movie recording.
Full HD movie recording
Complementing outstanding still imaging capabilities with Full HD 1080 video
recording including selectable frame rates and full manual control.
Integrated Speedlite Transmitter
The EOS 7D includes the ability to control multiple Speedlites without an ST-E2
or 580EX II, and includes a built-in 15mm wide angle flash. Expand your flash
photography.
3.0” Clear View II LCD
The 3.0” Clear View II LCD features 920,000 dot resolution, a wide viewing
angle and new solid structure for improved image viewing in bright conditions.
Live View displays real-time images on the LCD, offering three auto focus
modes.
Magnesium alloy body with environmental
protection
The magnesium alloy body offers weather sealing equivalent to the acclaimed
EOS-1N, EOS Integrated Cleaning System and 150,000 release shutter durability.
